After having my split padded armrest sit in the closet for about 6 months, I finally decided to take it to an upholster to see how much it would cost to fix it up. He's putting the same material on the arm rest and sewing it exactly the same for $30.

Since im fiberglassing my doors/armrest/ and painting my interior I figure my cost for redoing my armrest is about $12.

Fiberglassed, notice the light spots thats where my armrest had tremendous amount of ripples in it.

Bondo'd to smooth out.. circled area is one of the low spots i need to go over.
I painted a coat over it to determine my low/high spots... than rebonded to fix.

Will have painted pics soon.
